NASHVILLE – As a crowd of some 68,000 happy Titans fans exited The Coliseum here last night, they were looking for a Jets bandwagon to ride. “J-E-T-S . . . Jets, Jets, Jets,” they chanted with a Southern twang.

The Titans all but did the same in their victorious locker room. A 34-31 overtime win over the Steelers put Tennessee (12-5) in the AFC Championship Game. If the Jets beat the Raiders today, the game will be played here on Sunday. If the Raiders win, the game will be in Oakland.

“J-E-T-S . . . Jets, Jets, Jets. Obviously, we want to play in this place again,” said Titans TE Frank Wycheck, who caught a career high 10 passes for 123 yards and 1 TD.

“We want the Jets to win because we want the AFC [title] game to be here,” said defensive end Kevin Carter. “I’ll be rooting for them.”

The Titans will use today to nurse injuries to QB Steve McNair (thumb) and RB Eddie George (concussion). Linebacker Rocky Boiman injured a knee, OG Zach Piller aggravated a calf injury and CB Andre Dyson injured a shoulder that might require surgery. McNair and George said they will play next week.

George added he hopes the Jets win, but won’t be glued to the television. “At this point it really doesn’t matter,” he said. “When you get to the championship game, it can be played in your backyard, it can be played on the beach. It doesn’t matter the opponent or where, it’s just football then. Home field doesn’t guarantee you anything but a loud crowd.”
